Hi, We Are Fresh Coast Solutions.

Founded in 2009 in Clarkston, Michigan, we began with developing and maintaining software projects for just a few customers. Over the next couple of years, we expanded into new markets and found new customers that had a need for custom built software solutions. Our clients come from automotive, retail, non-profit, industrial, and many different industries.

We specialize in custom built applications that are built from the ground up. We provide high-quality products that our customers will utilize for many years. We use the latest technology and coding standards to provide the best solution possible to our customers. Our solutions include, large scale e-commerce websites, inventory systems, collaboration software, such as task lists, dashboards that query data from a range of different sources, and so much more.

We have many examples of how we help companies of all sizes improve their operations and financial performance – fast and cost effectively. Contact us to discuss your next software project.
